My son thought it would be cool to have a Halo Halloween costume. After much searching on the internet, I found some helpful advice on Youtube. I took cardboard and cut it to shape. I bent it to fit my son’s body and spraypainted it with metallic green.
I then cut additional pieces of cardboard and glued it to the leg, arm and chest pieces to give it depth and character. I attached elastic that I found in the sewing section. I attached these with hot glue and used hot glue to glue the cardboard together.
This costume was a bit time consuming. Prepare yourself for some blisters, between cutting the cardboard and hot gluing. You can come up with all sorts of ideas on this costume though. It was a very cheap costume to make. I really only had to pay for the spraypaint and I purchased some curly shoelaces for the helmet.
The helmet I cut into cardboard pieces and hotglued together. I bought some yellow plastic that you would wrap flowers or gifts in and hot glued it to the inside of the visor. ENJOY!
